Slumdog Millionaire broke me about 53 minutes in –:
ARVIND, blinded and begging: So, you're a big guy now, Jamal. I'm happy for you.
JAMAL: I'm sorry, Arvind.
ARVIND: You got saved, my friend. I wasn't so lucky. That's the only difference.

COOL HAND LUKE "They didn't get my mind right. Not with no stick, no, sir." But they did with bread and circuses, didn't they? Or maybe our story isn't over ….
$20.00
Looking forward to Cool Hand Luke. Gotta love someone who bucks the system.
$7.00
Layer CAKE is the name of the movie and it lives up to the name for sure.
Hope to see you both again at a GART next year. San Diego area has plenty of Beaches and conservatives.

Love the show. You guys are the best at thought provoking discussions in badlands and are on the money most of the time.
Would love to see you do a show on the 2004 British crime Film “Layer Cale” with Daniel Craig. A great underworld film

Love this show! Thanks for doing it!
Hope to see you Saturday BB at the meetup.

THE UNBEARABLE WEIGHT OF MASSIVE TALENT. Watched on Chris Paul's enthusiastic recommendation, and it turns out Chris Paul isn't right about everything, after all. Looking forward to meeting you both in Cocoa Beach.
$18.00
EX MACHINA. "[NPCs] don't want to be right. They want to be safe."–BB. … All character is programming. Wow. … Were smartphones created to divide us? Great discussions. … Conclusion: AIs will deliver highs for the society. AND LOWS.
$20.00
SPLIT. Watched this again twice to prep for Chris and BB — what a brilliant achievement, as good as Sixth Sense and Unbreakable. Dr. Fletcher is the poster child for Big Medicine's manipulative villainy disguised as care. Not a drop of hope here.
$25.00
Mrs. BB asked what is my Favorite show on badlands, I had to say story hour. Look forward to it every week. Can’t wait for Lord of the Rings trilogy. Hopefully BB can get Chris on board. lol
$22.00
Movie Suggestion. EXCELLENT (Warning! Warning! "Real history!") flick but not a polished Hollywood blockbuster — Love and Courage The Battle of Bushy Run. Might bring Ehret or Ghost on as guest star. What's real, what's not? (Apple and Prime, $10)
$19.00
Braveheart. Hadn't watched this movie in a long time. Wow, more like this. BB, just supported your kickstarter. I'm looking forward to buying Chris Paul's book, too.
$5.00
As a proud smoker, I have to honestly say that one is better off not smoking but one is also better off not whining about it. I always said that we smokers would have stood up for ourselves more but alas, we’re all out of breath. 🙂
$5.00
Guys. Loved the smoking show and comments. I’ve been a militant smoker for years & lived through the righteous indignation of the anti-smoking bitches. Their favorite line would be “You smoke?” while making a ‘you disgust me’ face. F them.
$11.00
Movie suggestion: Murder by Decree, 1979 (free w/ ads on Tubi). A painfully paced plot involving Sherlock Holmes, Jack the Ripper, and <drumroll> the global regime! Great cast, great sets. Worth a watch. They've been telling us all along!
$20.00
13 Hours. The best propaganda tells you a story that makes you laugh and grieve with the characters. And I did. A few of us are waking up, though. These characters are not in the right place. And we are all in the wrong story.
$10.00
A recommendation, if I may? I couldn't see it on the previous episodes. "The Imitation Game". Military Intelligence, Digital Soldiers, and a vision of AI.
$20.00
To set the stage for GART Deadwood, perhaps Hitchcock’s North by Northwest could be a film selection? Its climactic scenes at Mount Rushmore would be a perfect prelude to the conference!
$10.00
Following Crimson Tide, the next Hackman viewing was the gloriously improbable, kookily plotted Runaway Jury. Best line (Hackman): "Gentlemen, trials are too important to be left up to juries." To wit … elections cannot be left up to voters.
$20.00
never watch the movies but always enjoy the conversation
$25.00
Great show, thank you for interesting discussions. I recently saw Robin Williams in World's Greatest Dad, from 2009, written and directed by Bobcat Goldthwait. This film gave me a better understanding of what Chris calls the Party of False Decorum.
$20.00
Been feeling a bit of deja vu with whats happening lately. That could be a movie to take a look at.
$25.00
So happy to have met both of you at Plymouth, even tho I couldn’t speak when I introduced myself to Chris. I love this show, one of my favorites. Hoping BB you will see we are not bunch of weirdos so you come to one of our meet ups. 😂
$20.00
OMG … you're going to cover TG: Maverick. I went to see this at an IMAX theater 5 times, and I've seen it about 15 times now. For patriots of a certain age who saw TG as teens, there is nothing else like this movie.
$100.00

$5.00
Guys. I heard you’re doing PATTON! I’ve seen it a gazillion times! Question: the soldier slapping incident; was that an op to fool the Germans? Is that where the “ghost army” started? The fake army around Patton? “George, you’re on probation”.
$50.00
Rarely get on live but love watching these movies again with new eyes. Have watched all the episodes. Thought of 1 from the mid 2000's "The Island". I find the futuristic ones interesting to see what levels of control they portray.
$17.00
Hi Chris and BB, I am sending this in advance. Looking forward to your take on Social Network. Sending a link: https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=2027304110849657. Sean Parker on Axios YEARS ago. Maybe Party of False Decorum? I left FB in 2015.
$20.00
Confessions of a Dangerous Mind. Shakespeare as inversion of Bible. Interesting. Loved Shakespeare after commie (but honest) professor taught it through "close reading" technique. Thanks for reminding me to watch — brilliant flick.
$20.00
TheAccountant. A recovering CPA, I worked in Houston office of Arthur Andersen when Enron went down. Your dark characterization of accounting misses that it is a useful but flawed language for describing complex businesses, much more good than evil.
$10.00
I know I'm late, but thanks again for the Home Alone Story Hour, and for also including the Trump scene from Home Alone 2. I wanted to re-watch that scene in its entirety but finding a clip showing which entrance Kevin used was an uphill battl.
$50.00
Love the show. Congratulations BB on the new baby! Thank you for all you guys do.

Random fact: if the devil wrote a Christmas song it would be Feliz Navidad.
Merry Christmas ya filthy animals!
$200.00
Merry Christmas guys… May both your families receive a multitude of BLESSINGS this Christmas season. GOD Bless!
$50.00
This is a 'pre-show' boost, as I know you both will do a great job! I think your commentary will relate to BB's thoughts on DPH last Wednesday. Notice that Sicario is written by (?) Taylor Sheridan. He has to be a 'patriot'! Watch "Lioness".
$10.00
Enjoy this show so much every week, just can’t boost every week. New Englander badland group meet up November 3rd noon at Jacks Abby in Farmingham. Not affiliated with badlands. Please join if you are in the area and able.
$5.00
Thanks for continuing to be the most fun show on Badlands.
With all the talk of A.I. in Hollywood replacing actors, I recommend adding "Simone" (2002) to your list.
Al Pacino stars as a producer who makes a CG actress and things go sideways.

Will you pretty-please jam a square shaft in a round hole and consider featuring, "CHARLIE WORK" aka S10.E4 of Always Sunny in Philadelphia? Mary Poppins couldn't pack a heavier bag.
Thank you, and alright,

If you have not already done this, would you guys consider a show on how you switch from being liberal to considering other views from a normie perspective? I have some Masshole friends (I actually do love them) I would like to share this with.
$25.00
I think this movie has us all on a watchlist now. Chris has now bumped Jon out of the #1 Fed Boi spot
$15.00
I like your logical takes on the movies you review. This one in particular because you take it back to the wars our citizens have fought and lives lost for no reason other than the lust for power and violence that has permeated our society.
